Booburi Margaritas

Sitting here in my little dorm room staring into the glow of my computer, my heart aches a little bit as I go through photos from this summer to post here on my blog. The days are getting longer, but still, the sun had already gone down here by five. As much as I'm all for living in the moment, looking at these pictures makes me long for summer evenings. Dinner on the back porch, watching the sun set over the wheat field, sipping on libations, chillin with the fam. The smell of chlorine in my hair, the sizzle of the BBQ makin' magic, the flowers in full bloom, our frog homies croaking at us from the stream, fresh produce from the garden.. so much goodness to take in--so much to be thankful for.

Ahhh...these nights were always the best. Man, summer in general. Good times. So to pay homage to good times: tonight's concoction is going to be blueberry margaritas! Es una fiesta!! Aye aye aye! Not really from scratch, but Jose Cuervo's mix is pretty good. Also, I used Jose Cuervo Especial (Gold) tequila. I doctored it up by blending blueberries and putting them through a fine mesh sieve to get the seeds and other undesireable bits out. They look nice with some whole blueberries thrown in at the end, too.

Mmmm.. so refreshing! Hopefully this summer I won't be so lazy and I'll try making margaritas from scratch. Maybe as an incentive I'll have to host a margarita-off. That would be SO RAD! I hope I don't forget about this idea. If you want in, help me remember and then I can invite you!! :)
